How to Use This Address Editor

Ensure all lights and the editor are powered off.
Connect the FIR-DMX-XL to a compatible DC12V-24V power supply. Observe correct polarity (+/-).
Connect the DMX output of the editor to the DMX input of the very first MiBoxer auto-addressing lamp in your series.
Connect the rest of your DMX lamps in a daisy-chain configuration (output of the first lamp to input of the second, and so on).
Power on the editor and the DMX lamps.
The editor will automatically write the starting DMX address to the first lamp. The subsequent lamps will then automatically receive their sequential addresses.
Once addressing is confirmed to be successful, power down the system, disconnect the FIR-DMX-XL, and connect your main DMX controller to the first lamp to begin programming your light show.

⚠ Precautions

This device is a setup tool, not a permanent DMX controller. It should be removed from the DMX line after addresses are set.
Only use with MiBoxer DMX512 lamps specifically designed for auto-address editing. It will not work with standard DMX fixtures.
Always match the voltage of your power supply to the requirements of the editor and your DMX lamps (12V or 24V).
While the unit is IP66 rated, ensure all cable connections are also appropriately waterproofed for outdoor use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the primary function of the FIR-DMX-XL?

A:It's a specialized setup tool that automatically writes the initial DMX address to the first lamp in a series of compatible MiBoxer auto-addressing fixtures, simplifying large installations.

Q: Can I use this with any DMX light?

Q: Is this a DMX controller for running light shows?

Q: How do the other lights in the chain get their addresses?

A:The FIR-DMX-XL only addresses the first lamp. The MiBoxer auto-addressing system then ensures each subsequent lamp in the daisy chain receives the next sequential address automatically.

A:No, you only need one FIR-DMX-XL editor to set up any number of installations or lighting chains.
